Our People

Rebbecca Sweeney
Rebbecca Sweeney
Structured Literacy Consultant

Becc has a background in education through teaching, policy, leadership coaching, adult learning and facilitation. She has worked in a variety of educational roles including as a senior advisor at the Ministry of Education in policy, governance and curriculum roles. She has been a facilitator and consultant for almost 15 years and runs her own successful business two days a week.

Becc’s Master of Education research closely examined how adult learners collaborate. Using this knowledge and experience, she has been able to disrupt how people think about leadership, teamwork and teacher inquiry, and play a role in changing how educators works with children facing challenging circumstances in their lives. Becc’s particular knowledge of the Spiral of Inquiry, which is underpinned by the science of learning and development, has seen her become Aotearoa’s network lead for The Networks of Inquiry and Indigenous Education, which is also representative of her driving desire to work as an ally alongside Māori in Aotearoa. She is driven by a vision for equity in a bicultural Aotearoa.

Becc is an ICF trained and accredited Executive and Organisational Coach and enjoys coaching senior executive, and senior/middle leaders in education and business to support their career moves and leadership of people and culture.
